The phone does not allowed wireless charging after few minutes of wireless charging. I tested on both my built in wireless charger on the car and external wireless charger. Battery in Settings says Connected, not charging. Wonder if anyone else has tested this. USB charging works fine. It's pretty useless if wireless charging can`t function correctly.

I don't have an issue charging wirelessly.
Maybe my car's wireless charger and another wireless charger, both not compatible with Pixel. Did you try wireless charger for car?
No, not in the car. Just used a crap one at the house. Charges slow, but does charge.

Are all USB car chargers like this? Can I prevent this by getting a higher quality charger? When I'm not using maps or navigation (or turn off the screen for a while), then it'll slowly charge back up.

GPS is usually a big energy hog. How many amps is your car charger?
You should be able to get away with a higher amperage charger, but the trade off may be reduced battery life.

How fast does it discharge? I just went on an out of state trip last week and had gps on with the charger plugged in for several hours at a time. I didn't pay attention to the actual charge numbers, but it either discharges very gradually or charges very gradually. I could probably run it all day with the charger and gps without a problem. I don't recall the amp output of my car charger, but it is one of the cheap foreign models.

Reflash your ROM, dude. I had that problem on one of my initial GB ROM's where I had bad drain using GPS while charging in my car. I redownloaded and wiped everything and reflashed the ROM and everything was good.

If you are running a custom ROM, you can use SetCPU (or any other CPU clock control app that allows profiles) to set max of 800MHz when plugged in. This should at least get you to even charge/discharge levels when plugged in and running GPS while driving. Probably will depend on your screen brightness.
I don't run GPS long term very often right now, but I was for a while and FWIW, I was able to stream pandora, run google maps with screen on, not have any lag, and get a slow charge from my car charger by limiting clock speed to 800MHz.
Your other option (and what I usually do) is turn off the screen during longer sections of GPS nav with no turns (like sections of highway). You'll still get audible notifications for the next turn/maneuver/interchange/whatever, and you can turn the display on then if you need visual along with audio nav. The phone shouldn't have any problem charging and running GPS with the screen off...

Not all USB car chargers are alike. You need two things:
1. The car charger outputs higher current than 500ma. You need at least 700ma.
2. The charger is wired correctly to be recognized by phone as AC charger instead of PC USB port so that the phone will actually draw more than 500ma for charging. You can go to phone's status page to read what charge mode it is using.
Most iDevice chargers will not meet #2.
I have a stock Samsung car charger and it charges my phone while using Google Nav.
Thanks for the tips guys.
My phone discharges at around 1% every 20 minutes or so. I've been doing things like turning the screen off during periods of downtime to help with this (actually charges when I do this).
I'm using cheapy car adapter actually that has two usb ports and 2 cigarette ports in it and I use that with a samsung branded usb cable.
Hm yeah I'll try and see if limiting the CPU will help and if it does perhaps I'll just do that from now on.

Do you know of any other options that are wired correctly to draw more than 500ma? I think I did hear from somewhere that charging via usb is considerably slower than when using the wall charger. Do you know of any other options that would fulfill this requirement besides getting the stock Samsung car charger? Also I assume just finding a higher amp charger wouldn't work if the phone detects it as a usb charger instead of an AC charger?

The correctly wired charger will typically short the USB data PINs. iPhone charges and most generic car chargers with UBS ports don't do that. Most HTC chargers and Motorola chargers will work on Samsung phones. You need take a look at your car charger to see how much amps it can supply (listed on the spec label). The PC usb can only output 500ma max per spec. It is not enough to charge the phone while keep the screen on, GPS running and 3G connection active. Your Samsung OEM wall charger is rated 700ma. So, you need a car charger that outputs at least 700ma.
You then need to verify from the phone that the particular charger is recorgnized by the phone as AC charger. Without that, the phone will only draw 500ma max.
Hey everyone,
Just wondering if you guys have tried wireless charging on your Note 3 (QI). Does anyone know if any wireless charging charges as fast
as wired charging? The wired charging is incredible as im sure you all know but any wireless charging that is just as fast?
Thanks,
VinceC
Charging speeds depend on the charging mat that you use. The one I use at the moment only outputs at 1A, whereas the official Samsung AC adapter outputs at 2A. I can't really compare the charging durations as I charge my phone when I sleep.
my wired car charger...
Well I would say my car charger is the best one among them..as it charges my phone very fast even in the duration that i take to reach from my home to the workplace...I use the belkin one..and I really like it...it outputs as 2A..and that is which make me smiling...
Wireless charging max out at 640mAh using the wireless contact, wireless charging through the USB max out at 1000mAh.

Tried QI charging but IMHO the amount of heat is not acceptable.
wall charger will be fast. As said its about the Amp out put.
Think of it as speed. The higher the amp the faster it will go.
I do know that with wireless charging my phone gets hot while with the core it doesnt.
But i know its from the wirelessness its an induction type of charging.
I prefer wireless charging as wireless charging is a MUST for me as I have many devices and i am getting sick of plugging in wires.
wireless is not fast as the wired
I have 2 different wireless chargers and they work great. I use my USB 3.0 charger once in a while.

I second this.
Thanks guys yeah i did notice wireless charging gets my phone pretty hot.
I've just upgraded my unrooted LG G Pro 2(D838) to lollipop. Charging through my car usb adapter is now very slow since I updated. I have tried two chargers, both of which were charging at the full rate before, one of which is a genuine samsung charger - they both have over 2A output. The phone does recognise the charger as an AC charging source, but currently isn't charging above about 200mA.
I am using a Samsung AC charger at home which works as normal. I've had a bit of a look online and people are experiencing the same issue with the LG and other lollipop devices. One of the suggestions was to short the data pins on the usb cable, which I have done but this doesn't seem to have fixed the issue. If the phone is off it charges at the faster rate.
What I can't work out is why the charging speed is different between the samsung AC adapter and the car charger, when it detects both as an AC source? Is there some communication between the two, or are there any car chargers that will provide high speed charging that will work?
any suggestions are appreciated!
Hey Guys
I'm in love w/ my LG V30, except I think my phone might have a major fault - it can't charge wirelessly. I have a samsung quick charge charging pad, which was able to wirelessly quick charge my S7E. When I put my v30 on it, it acknowledges that it's charging, except that it doesn't actually charge the phone at all... the phone battery actually drains over time.
Now, I read somewhere it doesn't support wireless quick charging, which is a shame, but putting the phone on a samsung wireless quick charger shouldn't DRAIN the phone, should it?
Is there a difference between a samsung wireless charger vs a generic qi-enabled charger that is causing an issue here? I really don't want to return the phone bc everything else seems to be working perfectly.
as a confirmation, I went and bought a generic qi charger on amazon just now. luckily they are cheap. Going to check if its something to do w/ my charger... but I never had issues w/ my S7E and this particular charger. Frustrating.
FWIW .. working fine on mine. Generic charger from Amazon
Just confirming that wireless charging is working with my V30 and the TYLT Wireless Charger.
https://www.amazon.com/TYLT-Wireles...sr=8-1&keywords=tylt+vu+wireless+charger&th=1
Last night I placed the V30 on the charger on my nightstand at a 28% charge and woke up this morning to a 100% charge. So I'm not seeing any issues wireless charging after my first night with the phone.
I'll test it on my wife's Samsung wireless charger later on.
well fml. I went to work and plugged my phone into my USB-C charger, the phone wouldn't charge at all. It was plugged in, battery properties said "plugged in - not charging". Something is up with my phone.
I restarted the phone, and now it seems to be charging fine via the USB-C charger, but I don't like this one bit. I shouldn't have to reboot my phone to get it to properly take a charge. Once my new charger arrives i'll test it. If I get the same results, I'm returning this phone for a replacement, which sucks.
FWIW mine charges wire-lessly just fine on my Samsung charging pad...
got my hands on another samsung wireless charger (non fast-charge model).
It's the flat hockey puck model. Fortunately, it appears to be charging now. So it looks like strangely something has gone wrong w/ my other wireless charger. I will continue to monitor this issue closely, but it looks like wireless charging is okay on my phone, and it's some sort of fluke issue with that particular charger. If anyone else sees any strange issues w/ wireless charging, please report. Perhaps we can narrow down the problem... if it's phone or charger related.
I would be quick to blame the charger, but as far as I know, the charger worked just fine w/ my S7E for the longest time.

Good to know that version works. Got a couple of free ones when I got my S6's.
Hi
I have purchased a wireless charging receiver.
On other phones it works just fine, but on the Motorola One it does not get recognized and does not charge my phone.
Any ideas what could I do to enable it?
It doesn't support wireless charging. Simple as that.
